Poveda


Everywhere he's been he's done the same. We paid a £1m for him from Man City. Biggest waste of a wage ever. 10 min cameos as his contract runs down. Injured all the time. Gets a loan gig, looks half decent, gets signed on with a wedge. You won't see him play until his next gig is on the horizon.

Give owa man I’ve just named 15 dross signings off the top of my head. Add Poveda and it’s 16.

4 loan signings. 11 permanent.

I named 8 decent signings. Aleksic looks promising too.

We haven't paid more than £5M for a single player.

If you think recruitment is easy at our level I would apply for a job at SAFC.

Edit: Forgot about Ross Stewart, Clarke and Roberts. That's more or less a 50/50 strike rate which is brilliant in truth.

No thoughts on how Poveda is feeling I see. It must be demoralising being injury prone after his biggest move to safc.

Bit disingenuous that like.
The majority of those were on a free , or nominal fee.
And Aouchiche , ba , Connolly (he was here a few months!) Michut and Geldhart all did a job for us. Loads wantwd Michut signed and loads disappointed we let Aouchiche go.
Dack one for TM and hjelde started last night.

The worrying thing for me is how bad most on that list were/are.

It's not really worrying is it?
Unless you're playing 10 mil or so like for Rodwell.
When they are free or peanuts it's fairly low risk.
Some young kids develop, some don't settle.
I'm sure you're not mental enough to think that the majority of people we get on free or cheap transfers should be able to play at the top level of championship football comfortably within a few months of being here ?
Out of that lot, Rusyn really the only disappointment as he was chased hard and we spent quite a bit on him

Such a shame as I thought he would be a hit

I've been told by people in the club, he's a bad egg, not to the level of those in the past but bad of this group
 
Pov got Cirkin and the other young lads pissed in the Glass Spider, and bought Riggy some cans from the shop.
